The Astropy Project: Building an inclusive, open-science project and status of the v2.0 core package

Adrian M. Price-Whelan, +135 more
TL;DR: The Astropy project as discussed by the authors is an open-source and openly developed Python packages that provide commonly-needed functionality to the astronomical community, including the core package Astropy, which serves as the foundation for more specialized projects and packages.

Wavelength accuracy of the keck hires spectrograph and measuring changes in the fine structure constant

TL;DR: In this article, an attempt to accurately calibrate four nights of data taken with the Keck HIRES spectrograph on QSO PHL 957, for the purpose of determining whether the fine structure constant was different in the past, was made.

The UVES large program for testing fundamental physics-II. Constraints on a change in μ towards quasar HE 0027-1836

TL;DR: In this paper, an accurate analysis of the H-2 absorption lines from the z(abs) similar to 2.4018 damped Ly alpha system towards HE 0027-1836 observed with the Very Large Telescope Ultraviolet and Visual Echelle Spectrograph (VLT/UVES) as a part of the European Southern Observatory Large Programme for testing fundamental physics' to constrain the variation of proton-to-electron mass ratio, mu m(p)/m(e).
